3. Barbie
This film was always going to be entertaining, but we didn’t expect it to basically be a therapy session for women. We truly feel that this is a film everyone needs to see, as it is likely to send them all down a path of self acceptance, self discovery, and learning their worth.

1. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is the perfect sendoff for these characters as we know them. It is easily the best MCU film since Avengers: Endgame. James Gunn has clearly poured so much of his heart into these films and he wanted them to go out with love and perfection. Which is exactly what he accomplished. It is bittersweet knowing this will be his final Marvel film. Probably.
